Townsville Race 1 - Winter Carnival Tickets On Sale Now Hcp
I'LLTELLYOUGO (1) was a touch disappointing at the latest effort but the form prior was red hot hitting the top-two on six occasions in a row. Gets plenty of weight relief with the 3kg claim and can bounce right back to form against this lot. HAND GRENADE (2) returned to the winner's stall at Cairns last start and will have derived a stack of confidence from that victory. Looms as the main danger. BETTER SHOW (3) has a win and a placing from three attempts over this track and trip and should be at peak fitness for this. In the mix. VALENTINO MISS (5) resumes here but showed enough in her first preparation to warrant consideration in a race like this. Can return in winning order. COACHMAN (4) is facing the starter for the first time and any market moves must be noted.

Most recently did the work up front then tired 9th of 14 at this track 2yo SW on June 8 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4 len behind Dance For Me Randy carrying 55kg at $2.30. The start before that set the pace for much of the race 2nd in a small field at Rockhampton 2yo Hcp on May 31 over 1100m, slow going 0.9 len behind Astra Star carrying 57.5kg at $2.50. Worth another chance.

Resumes off a 31 day let-up. Most recently favourite; won by 1.1 len at Cairns 2yo Hcp June 1 over 950m in the wet defeating Better Show carrying 55kg at $1.80. The race before that faded in the straight 5th of 11 at this track 2yo Hcp on May 17 over 1200m, 3 len behind Head Honcho with 54.5kg at $19. No reason why she cannot salute again.

The run before that 10th of 14 at this track 2yo SW on June 8 over 1200m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Dance For Me Randy carrying 55kg at $81. Promising effort last time out. Solid prospect.
